Beer Club

Mission

As members of the Jones Graduate School of Business and the Rice community we are advocates for networking opportunities, as well as building lasting relationships with our fellow peers. Beer has long been a source of collegiate networking and relationship development and has strong ties to Rice University traditions. Our goal is to educate our fellow students in the wide varieties of beer styles, and to learn about the beer industry as a whole. We will fulfill our goals by holding various beer tasting events, and by having breweries and distribution companies sponsor these events.

The purpose of this organization is to:

•

To expand our business network with other students and alumni

•

To build relationships with the local, national, and international breweries and distributors with the Jones School.

•

To expand our knowledge of different styles and types of beer (expand our palette)

•

•

To learn about the beer industry

•

To strengthen comradery among our fellow students

•

To bridge the gap between the Full-Time MBA and MBA for Professionals programs
